When There la Any Drfvlf»« to Mo
Dene Farmer Should Do it—Pa*~
tura the Sore-Footed Horae.
<Bj E. h. VINCENT.)" ^flometimee we hear farmers ear tbey are driven by tbeir work. If there is any driving done on the farm the farmer abould be the on^ to do it. DriTe, no^ be driven. Just aa easy, and a great d«al more satisfaction tn it.
I bad an old horse a few years ago that was quite flat footed. His feet got real sore and tender when on the road. After haying and harvesting one year I toolt his.. shoes off and turned hino out in the pasture. It was better than medicine for- him. He really renewed hl>i youth. Try it with your horses troubled that way.
Hold on! Don't you know that pouring potatoes into a biij, letting them drop several feet, will bruise tbem BO tbat tbey will be far more apt to decay? Pour them in carefully. It has been> hard work to grow the crop. Don't waste it by carelessness at the last end.
.Clean out the well before the win¬ ter rains ciMiie. Do it tborougtfly, too.
The harness looks like sixty, some- howC^ Wben did you clean It? Take some rainy day and get at that. Tou will feel Jl great deal better about It than you do now, I am sure. Brsry fanner oufbi to have an honest pride falwut his avsearance, not only away from home but when about hia work from day to day.
How about that note? Oolng to pay it off this fallT Hope you can. It was Benjamin Franklin who said, "Ruin rldea on debt's back." Some of ua need to keep in the saddle ouraelres to h«ep tbe Old Fellow off. Pay off as test as you can.
Round up the season by doing a little more than you planned last spring toward making tbe farm better.

Recognized as Having Higher Feeding
Value Than Clover and Could B«
IVIade Part of Rotationa.
(By A. ARNY.)
In red clover, alfalfa has a rival in many parts of the north. Here red clover luxuriates on a soil to which it seems especially adapted and which, 'vbile sharing with alfalfa the capacity for supplying nitrogen, troth as a fer¬ tilizer to the soil and as a nutritive element in feed laclting in other field crops, has also shown greater endur¬ ance under the trying conditions of climate than have some of the strains i of alfalfa tbat have l)een sown in the
^J
north.
Alfalfa, however, is recognized as having a higher feeding value than clover. Could it, thei%fore, be made a part of ordinary rotations, it might be given a preference. On small farms, or on any farms intensively cultivated.

*Repii1»Hcan and t)«oiocratft: State and County Committees recognize tbat womaji suffrage has aslsumed signi- floaot politicai proportions in New York.
Frederick C, Tanner,
Chairman, Republican State Com¬ mittee, says:
"Of courpe I believe that tlie ques¬ tion of woman suffrage shonld be Sub¬ mitted to the voters. Not only does the platform of the Republican Party make this pledge, but the movement has assumed such proportions as to warrant it."
William Harman Black,
Chairinan. Democratic County Com¬ mittee, declares that: Women suff¬ rage Is the only moral question in Am¬ erica today. Even the question of pro. hibition Is largely one of expediency, but woman suffrage is one of pur^ right.
"It wiilgive me the greatest poasible pleasure to vote for the Constitutional amendment which will bo .pubraiitted next fall. ^
"It is astonishing what rapid pro¬ gress is being made by the movement, especially In pol+ticai circles. There is hardly a public dares oppose it, and proibalbly the oiUy opposition is from those men who are not willing to sacrifice tbeir political futures by openly opposing it." Herbert N. Warbaaae,
Member, RepuMican State Commit¬ tee, Kincs County, favors suffrage for American wcmen because he believen hi American women. "They oonatltute the greatest force we have for politi¬ cal purity and social Justice. Women can he>p men and men need their help.
"Men have no noonopoly in righteous- Bess or wisdom. The notion that men should do all the voting is fast going to Its eternal resting place in its po¬ litical garret with the divine rght of kings. In our great independence document we declare that "govern¬ ments derive their just powers from the consent of tlie governed." Are our women not governed? Are our wvmen not people and human beings?
"Triangle" flres and "General Slo- c\rm" disasters are caused by the wicit- ed sloth of .society in protecting wom¬ en. Tf men were voteless how long would they remain passive under a government by women which drowned them and burned them to death by the hundreds? Should not women have boinetlihiK to say as to who sliall pass Hud who .shall enforce laws for their protection? If the worklngman were today deprived cf his ballot and his union he would be thrust back two centurie.s. Under our present indivi¬ dualistic civilization woman, and es¬ pecially the working woman, needs every means of self-help and protec tion wivieh can be placed in her hands.
Interesting Experiment With Twenty-one Animals.
Data In Regard to Efficiency of Three Different Rations for Fattening Purpoaea—Weight Not Control¬ ling Factor in Making Gains.
(By W. A. COCHEL.)
The ability cf a horse to lay on fiesh is largely a matter of individuality controlled by disposition, tempera- n»^t,/ags, condition, digestive capac¬ ity and type. A most int^restlnsr ex¬ periment was made, with 21 horseS, to obtain'data In rej^axd to th"e efficiency of three different rations for fattening purposes. The point to be discussed in this article, however, is merely that of the changes in form due to fatten¬ ing.
The average gains made by horses weighing over 1,450 pounds at tbe be¬ ginning of tbe experiment were prac¬ tically the same as those of lighter horses, which ;ivould seem to Indicate tbat weight is not a controlling fac- man today whol ^^^ '° making gains. Mature horses, six or seven years of age, made more satisfactory gains than those four to five yeara of age.
A record of the outline of the chest and of tbe middle of the paunch of each horse was made at the beginning; and close of the experiment by means of an adjusfaible chain, for the pur¬ pose of determining where the fat was placed on tbe body.
Results showed that there was little change In d'^pth of body, especially at the heart girth, but there .was an apparent improvement in the spring of rib and a very material increase in the width of body throughout. It would seem from the facts obtained that the greatest change in form due to the fattening process is noted tn those parts of the body where tbere is the heaviest covering of muscle and that in those regions where there is

its value as a nitrogenous food—STspe- rlor to clover—and the greater cer¬ tainty of a crop wheu ouce fairly started, make it desirable that it abould at least be tested iu a Bmall ¦a'.ay. The longer life of an alfalfa nteadow, as compared to one of clover, will often make it a moat valuable ad¬ junct .to the farm. Success in han¬ dling tbe crop in a small way, supple¬ mented :by the knowledge thus ac¬ quired oif tbe conditions making for such suceess, will afford the best guarantee against failure should it later be determined to devote to al¬ falfa a larger cumber of acres.
Any good corn land—any land not too wet to grow red clover—should produce alfalfa as well. An abundance of vegetable matter in the 8oil is es¬ sential, and so also is good drainage, such as will prevent wat«r from stand¬ ing long oii the surface In low places, in winter, in spring, or after summer rains. The water level in the soil should not be nearer than seven oi eight feet from the surface. t
A resolution proposing a wom¬ an suffrage amendment to tiie New Yorl< State constitution passed the 1913 Legislature.
The vote was 40 to 1 in ita fa¬ vor In the Senate and 128 to S in the Assembly.
It is expected that the same resolution will pass the 1915 Legislature, its victory in both houses being assured by the pledges of Senators and Assem¬ blymen.
The voters of New York State will then have an opportunity to vote on the amendment in No¬ vember, 1915.
Is New York State to have the benefit of woman's point of view in the problems of good govern¬ ment?

little muscle the changes were Insig-1 jilficant. j
One very marked change in the [ form of the chest is noted in the ioca- j tion of the point of greatest width, . which is nearly two inches higlier in j the fat animal than one in thin con-1 dition. There is a smoothness iu out- | line and rotundity of form after fat- j tening which is entirely absent before i tho finishing process is started. I
In the outlines of the middle of! paunch of thin horses there is a flat-1 ten^d appearance above the medi'an, I while the .saind measurements after fattening result iu almost a perfect I circle. While there is .some change iu | the lower half of (he middle girth, the | Krealer change in the upper half elimi¬ nates from the fat animal that degree ! pauuchiness wliich is displeasing | and adds very much to the neatness | . I of the individual. I As a few of the horses used in the ^ j experiment were kept at heavy work ^ I immediately after the close of the ex- I.: perinrsnt, it is interesting to note that 1 as they lost in weight and condition *' they assumed a form similar to that which they had before the fattening period.
These changes are so striking as to

While additional data should be se¬ cured along these lines before final conclusions are made, the resulta here presented seem to indicate tbat the greatest change in fattening horses is one of width rather than depth, that

Feed tha Scraps.
